Wonderful quiet and cosy guesthouse, twin suite was ideal for two travellers. Simple but complete breakfast served in the morning to your room. Convenient to get to Cowsgate and central, both very walkable and easy access to get to by bus if travelling with luggage.

Basically in the middle of Edinburgh. I was travelling solo, so I got a single room. The bathroom was detached, but very nice. The room was small, but adequate. The staff was great, and the morning breakfasts were delicious.

Breakfast was minimal. Served on a tray in the room. No way to mingle with other guests. An old dated converted home. 1.5 miles from the royal mile. Dinner choices were a 1 mile walk round trip. It was just basic and off the beaten path.
